Starting to look like the Indy Car series, they have a similar system for some races.

Qualifying starts at 3pm for the first race of the season in Bahrain, so far it looks like the Red Bull have the fastest car on the grid, this season should hopefully be interesting.

High Rake cars so far look to have the advantage with the new regulation changes.

Great race from Lewis. Look out for Max the rest of the season.

Good analysis pip.

Not exactly an analysis den.

Sky Sport F1 quoted the late great Murray Walker

"catching up is easy, overtaking is a different matter"

It was definitely an edge of the seat finish for Sir Lewis fans.

Every time Sky Sports had Lewis on the screen they had "Sir Lewis Hamilton"
BBC "Lewis Hamilton" thus no respect.

I was a little ironic that it was Red Bull who had complained to the stewards early in the race about Mercedes going wide at turn 4. :rolleyes:

The FIA/stewards don't help themselves in situations like this. You can either leave the track or you can't, why was there an in-between.
